1 SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL GUIDED VISIT TO THE MODERNIST BUILDINGS Espai Cultura de la Fundació Sabadell 1859
2 SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL GUIDED VISIT TO THE MODERNIST BUILDINGS OF ANTIGA CAIXA SABADELL >>> SUGGESTIONS FOR CLASSROOM WORK Below are two sections that will be useful for the preparation of the visit to the modernist buildings of Fundació Antiga Caixa Sabadell 1859 (main and former Industrial School of Arts and Crafts) and its corresponding complementary workshop (stained glass and mosaics). The first section is identified as Material for the teacher, is about modernism, the decorative arts found in the two buildings, and artists and craftsmen who participated in the construction of the main building. For students of Kindergarten and Primary School is good that the teacher use this information to pose it to students the questions in the second section, titled as Activities to do with the students. This task is divided into two sections: the first can be done before coming to visit and workshop because the children know better the artistic style that belong to these buildings; and the second are questions to answer once the activity has already been done, and to do a review of what has been said in the visit. Otherwise, if students are from secondary school or vocational training, you can give them the information called Material for teacher so they know more in depth the space that come to visit. The questions in the second section can be discussed in class once everyone has already read the document (questions previous to the visit) and once made the visit (questions after the visit). The addresses of information (in the form of web pages) at the end of the dossier can be used to investigate further and have a broader and richer topic. >>> MATERIAL FOR TEACHER What is modernisme? Modernism was a cultural movement, basically artistic and literary, produced in the West between the end of the nineteenth century and the early twentieth century. The explanation below is based on the artistic part of this movement, as it is related to the topic of this issue. In Catalan, the word Modernism has a very broad meaning that goes beyond the purely artistic. But basically only designate currents of Western art (especially architectural and decorative) known in other countries as Art Nouveau, Modern Style, Jugendstil, Stile Liberty, Sezessionstil, Style 1900, Style Nouille, etc. It is basically a derivative-derived style and symbolism, characterized by the predominance of the curve on the line, the richness and detail of the decoration, the frequent use of vegetal motifs, the taste for asymmetry, refined aestheticism and dynamic forms. Its origins lie in England, where the influences of the Arts and Crafts movement and the Gothic revival had already given an style towards the Aesthetic Movement, which was a prelude to the content of the Art Nouveau. Until the second half of the decade of the eighties didn t appear the firsts modernist works (A. Gaudí and L. Domènech in Catalonia, L.H. Sullivan in the US, etc.), and was in the following decade that style was generalized in works like the Belgian architects V. Horta and H. van de Velde, the French H. Guimard, the Scottish C.R. Mackintosh (Glasgow school director), the German A. Endell and the Austrian O. Wagner, J. Hoffmann and J.M. Olbrich, as the French artisans R. Lalique and É. Gallé (Nancy unifying School) and the American C.L. Tiffany and Lighting illustrators and poster as the English A. Beardsley and the Czech A.M. Mucha. In France, in 1895 Samuel Bing opened the store s Art Nouveau, which helped to make fashionable style that was widespread throughout the Munich magazine Jugend, founded in 1896, and gave him the name. In the Germanic
3 world the movement went much attached to Sezession. The international triumph of the style was undoubtedly the Paris Universal Exhibition in 1900, and later this year, although it was still cultivated for a few years still hard, lost the regenerative character; contributed, however, to form new styles that follow. In 1884, when the word appears, perhaps for the first time in Catalonia, in L Avenç, Ramon Casas and Santiago Rusiñol, though unknown, presented the new room Parés works that were already controversial by critics (La corrida of Casas; Barcelona, Sala Collection). It was the time of the first architectural essays by Antoni Gaudí, the great architect who began the movement to the forefront of international art, with great early works such as the Palau Güell ( ); Lluís Domènech i Montaner, with the restaurant of the Universal Exhibition of 1888 (Castle of the Three Dragons), and placed almost at his level. The structurally and decoratively fantastic innovative architects of the two was soon followed by many others, such as Antoni M. Gallissà, Jeroni F. Granell, and B. Bassegoda i Amigó, Pere Falqués and especially Josep Puig i Cadafalch, author, among other works, of the local Els Quatre Gats, site of the discussions and events of modernists. At the same time, J. Domènech i Estapà and Enric Sagnier worked with an eclectic modernist influence with big spectacularity. Modernism in art was synonymous of modernity, and that time, in painting, was naturalism as defined by the referee of the review Raimon Casellas. Casas and Rusiñol constituted the modernist painting when imported from Paris echoes of Edgar Degas Impressionism the early years of the decade 1890 (Plein Air 1891, Casas, Modern Art Museum of Barcelona), in the middle of the misunderstanding of much of the public and critics. The term, however, also included little or decadent symbolism cultivated by the Anglophile Alexandre de Riquer (since 1893), by Rusiñol in their panels of Cau Ferrat in 1896 by Joan Brull, Josep M. Tamburini, for Sebastià Junyent (which also had Grey Impressionism) and the Catholic Joan Llimona, and somehow also included the exuberance of color of the distant Hermen Anglada. In sculpture the highest figure was Josep Llimona, followed, never with so identification with the new European trends like him, by Enric Clarasó, Miquel Blay, Agustí Querol and Eusebi Arnau, which often integrate their work on the new architecture. At a level virtually all popular Modernism was the symbolist art, especially the sinuous and exuberant decorative arts framed inside Art Nouveau or the european Modern Style: sculptors as Lambert Escaler and Dionís Renart, artists like Lluís Bonnín, painters like the first Pau Roig, furniture makers like Gaspar Homar and Joan Busquets, designers like Josep Pey, poster as Gaspar Camps (as like Casas and Riquer), goldsmiths as the family Masrieras, book-platers as Josep Triadó and Joaquim Renart (and Riquer above all), and versatile men like Adrià Gual i Lluís Masriera, mostly belonging to a younger generation, perpetuated a style in decoration that soon remained without concern for renewal that the first modernists. Against this spectacular and decorative deviation rose young people as Mir, Nonell, the first Picasso, Pidelaserra, Canals and others that, rejecting the name of the modernist continued applying the most conservative critics, rediscovered the renewed concern that had the greatest left and put the Catalan painting at the forefront of western art. While in painting the Modernist art fell into decline at the beginning of the twentieth century, sculpture, especially the applied one, and also in architecture still survived many years in the great work of the first Josep M. Jujol, Joan Rubió i Bellver, Lluís Muncunill, Salvador Valeri, Alexandre Soler i March and Cèsar Martinell. Also rooted in Valencia (Francisco Móra, Manuel Peris, Demetri Ribes) and Mallorca (Gaspar Bennazar, Francesc Roca) and expanded to other lands through Catalan architects like Josep Grases (in Madrid), Enric Nieto (in Melilla), Pau Monguió (in Teruel) and Eugeni Campllonch and Julià Garcia Nuñez (in Argentina), to the point that was appointed in many places of the Hispanic area as the Catalan style. DECORATIVE ARTS OF THE MODERNISTS BUILDINGS OF ANTIGA CAIXA SABADELL The windows The windows are stained glass windows of some skylights and other openings in a building, built according to a design or preliminary drawing (cardboard) and made generally with lead on a metal frame. To make a stained glass, the first operation consists in tracing in a paper the cardboard painted by the artist. After this, cuts the paper on templates, which will serve as a model for glass cutter. Once the glass is cut, it is leaded provisionally to be able to paint the lines of the drawing with compatible paint. Once the crystals are unarmed, we cooked again in the oven (between 500 C and 700 C) to fix the paintings. Leaded again, we weld strips of lead and make various shaped panels, which, once placed in a metallic frame, are embedded with iron bars in its final place.
4 The mosaics The mosaics used to decorate a surface made from pieces of stone, marble or other materials of different colors that are joined together using a special paste. The word comes from the Latin musivum opus, set out in Rome towards the end of the first century BC to indicate the decorations that adorned fountains and caves, dedicated sites to the muses, received the name of musae and their decoration, the musivum opus. In the mosaic work is necessary to distinguish two major categories: the mosaic pavement and the wall, this second born later than the pavement. The invention of the tile revolutionized the technique of mosaic; cutting and joining them with care the artist could get to obtain artistic effects similar to those of the mural. The materials used are marble, limestone and glass paste; is called opus tessellatum. The difference between opus vermiculatum and opus tessellatum was that the tiles are very small. The opus signinum consists in tiles used over a pink mortar. The opus sectile is a mosaic composed of marble slabs.
